Presidency Moves To Repair Apapa Road by scribble: 8:41am On Jul 18, 2014
The Federal Government has moved to repair the badly damaged Apapa road.

Professor Sylvester Monye, Senior Special Assistant to the President, Monitoring and Implementation, disclosed this at the end of a meeting with the maritime stakeholders in Lagos.

He said the President had grown disturbed over a multitude of phone calls he had received on the issue.

Monye said the situation got so bad that businesses, including port operations, were affected as man-power and revenue were being lost as a result of the traffic gridlock.

Monye also said a new call-up system for tankers and articulated vehicles will be re-introduced with a view to monitoring the movement of such vehicles into the Apapa area.

Besides the agreement by maritime stakeholders to move their vehicles out of Apapa, the government is also considering going into partnership with land owners within Ogun State to build truck parks.

It was further agreed that after all the vehicles would have been moved out of Apapa, the contractor will move to site and the road would be repaired within two weeks.

Monye reiterated that the road was not a park but was made for everybody to use.

He said: “The road is not their park. Federal Government would not provide truck park for them.

“Does anybody provide truck park for Ekene Dilichukwu and the Young Shall grow? Everybody provides their parks, so why are we being held to ransom?

“We want to cooperate with them by assisting them. It does not necessarily mean that it is the responsibility of the Federal Government. They are there to make money; they should take care of themselves.

“What we need to do is to get rid of the trucks to enable the contractor get to work.”

While we wait for them to act we could still feed the world of what has become of the area.
Some PPl are abusing me already. I am a GEJ supporter but not a bigot and will vote him come 2015 but i'm posting this in the interest of the Nation and not for political reasons.

More. The road is being worked on but the contractor on this end (borini prono) just left site for close to a year now. We need the FG to intervene ASAP and save Nigerians of his embarrasment.

Does Fashola and Lagosians need to cry out before the FG will do the right thing? Same happened for the Apapa-Oshodi expressway, it took a frontpage report by sun news for FG to give attention to that road and start patching and the took the exposure of watchinglagos.com for them to stop patching and instead, rebuild which has been impressive so far. Must we show the FG their responsibility?
